‘Dreamers’ Convene to Celebrate—and Embrace Parents

Wall Street Journal, 12/02/2012

Emboldened by a new program that allows them to remain in the U.S., hundreds of undocumented youth at a conference Sunday decided that their next goal is to urge Washington to devise a policy that also brings their illegal-immigrant parents out of the shadows. “As we celebrate our victory, we remember our moms and dads, uncles and aunts…who are still undocumented,” Cristina Jimenez, managing director of United We Dream, which represents young undocumented people, told about 600 members here.
